I have created an email template using Outlook 2013. In this template I have some images hosted on the web.
When i send the mail everything is seen Ok on the various Outlook version. But when the mail is seen on the Blackberry My mail seems ok but at the end of the mail, the images are also listed as attachments. So I see the correct template and the list of images. How can i prevent this behaviour? I need to keep the same behaviour as in the Outlook version (not display the listing of the images as attachments at the end of the mail)
Could you point me in the right direction?
Thank you so much.
As far as I know, there is no way to prevent Outlook from sending images as MIME attachments. Other Outlooks will interpret them correctly, whereas most email clients will see them at attachments.

I am using a zapier zap to post tweet from trello card added to a specific list.
The description part goes to tweet text and attachment image goes to image of tweet.
In case of one image attachment works well. I use zapier formatter to extract an image url from trello card's attachment.
But I want to tweet more than 1 images. In that case zapier pass the multiple attachments as one zipped file contains attached images. So it fails to pass it to the twitter as invalid media format because it is zipped format but not image format just like .jpg, or .png.
How can I implement this?
Thank you in advance.
What you're describing is expected behavior in how the hydration process is handled for multiple images.
You might be able to use a third-party service like - https://zapier.com/apps/convertapi/integrations app to get these files unzipped within the editor.
With that said, afaik, unless you're creating your own private dev Twitter app, the main app only able to accept one image per post at the moment.
I creating emails using partial views and saving them in DB (later they will be sent). I need to embed image into email to display in gmail. How to do this in ASP.NET MVC 2 project? How to embed image into view to make it work and display image in gmail?
You can't. Well, not reliably anyways. At least not in the way you mean. There is such a thing as data-url's, that allow you to embed an image into the page, but you will find that this is not widely supported by email clients and thus is not a reliable way to include images.
In fact, creating emails with embedded content is something of a black art. There are so many gotchas with various email client support that you have to do a lot of research into what does and doesn't work.
However, in general, what you want to do is use an embedded MIME image attachment in the email multi-part mime format, which has nothing whatsoever to do with MVC. All you would do in MVC is create your email with the appropriate tag (ie. <img src="cid:logo_sml.jpg">) to extract the mime content from the email, note that you won't see anything in a browser, as it only works in an email client.

How to embed images in email
sending mail along with embedded image using asp.net
I am developing an app for an Organization that wants to send bulk emails (newsletters).
I need to create an interface to compose emails with image embed feature. I can use TInyMCE. But I dont know what to do to upload images and attach them in email and send them properly.
I saw MoxieManager. But Is it compatible with rails and if so how to do it.
Please help me how to solve this.
Thank you.
You could base64 encode your images and insert them into the content directly.
All you would need for this is a small custom plugin (which is not that difficult to write).
One option would be to use Paperclip or Carrierwave to dump them in an S3 bucket and just use img tags in the HTML part of the email.
The process would be
User uploads using TinyMCE
Controller attaches image files to the newsletter model whilst storing them on S3
Email send method does a substitution so that the names of images in the HTML text that TinyMCE added in the img tags are swapped out for the correct S3 urls.
Hi I am sending email attachments (using php) and would like to point out to the people that I send the emails to that there are attachments.
I want to do this by displaying a link in the html body of the email, so all they need to do is click the link and there system will try and open/view the attachment.
Does anyone know if this is this possible?
and if so any pointers/nudges in the right direction would be appreciated.
This will not work and it's a security concern, especially since links can be disguised and attachments can be dirty.
Add a big bold title with emphasis on the attachment, most users know how to download these from their (favorite) client.
So like many online companies, we send e-mail advertisements. Outlook 2007 has some quirky HTML rules so things that look fine in any browser, when sent to Outlook 2007, look horrific.
Is there a program where I can preview what the HTML would look like in Outlook 2007?
You are not alone ;-) What I do is try sending the email to me (alone) and then see how it comes out. AFAIK there are no software which can show you the preview ;-)
Edit: Check this question which some useful which you use while sending HTML emails.
I faced the same issue because of the switch from IE to Word as the rendering engine in Outlook 2007.
So I have been using Word 2007 to preview the HTML file to see how it looks, before sending it to Outlook. It has so far worked fine in my case. Try it and let us know if it works for all your cases.
Hello sendning Mass Mails throw Outlook isnt a good idea.
There are Many Opensource Massmailer Try http://sourceforge.net/projects/tellmatic/
And a preview option isnt aviable for html files nor other things in outlook no matter which version 2003 or 2007 or 2010.
Ive had exactly this same issue.
What i had to do is download outlook 2007 to sort this out, and then created a program to send myself emails to test.
Alternatively you can use this site to send emails to any email address:

Old thread i know, but i think my answer can help anyone that stumbles across this question much as i did.
